April 2011 (so far)

Evia is 8 months old.  She is crawling, standing, and tries to take steps while holding onto the couch.  She is very active but has a pretty mellow personality.

Evia loves her baby sister.  She is very sweet with her most of the time and it's really cute to watch them play together.  Here they are in Evia's tent/castle/fort (depends on what she's playing at the time).

Evia loves to watch us cook and will "cook" food in her doll house kitchen.  Here she is checking on her enchiladas.  Notice the use of mommy's winter glove as an oven mitt.  Don't worry.  The oven wasn't on.  This is just pretend.

More park pictures.  Evia is in constant motion.  The neighborhood park is great for burning energy.  I love the picture because she always has to run down the hill a few times before we leave.  She really gets into it.

March 2011

Modeling her new helmet.  She loves the helmet but still hasn't mastered riding her bike.

It's almost impossible to get Evia to keep her bows in.  She will ask to wear one and them promptly remove it.

Happy Violet!  She is such an easy going baby.  The total opposite of Evia.

Evia is out little tomboy.  She loves to run, play outside, jump off things, and just generally be a little monkey.  She comes home from school totally filthy.  I love her energy and wish I had as much.

Evia's Got the Joy!

Evia kept singing while I was trying to brush her teeth.  I said she could sing for the camera if she would just let me finish with her teeth.  She is a total cheese for the camera.

Look Who's Crawling!

Violet has started crawling.  She has been working on a clumsy crawls for the past week.  She now crawls everywhere and I've put the fences up in the living room to keep her contained.

Hey Evia! Stand by your sister and smile so I can get a picture.  No? OK then just be a complete ham and I'll still take your picture.

Someone looks just like daddy!
